Mississippi Birdwatching - A Year-Round Guide by Bill Thompson

From Barnes & Noble

Nature is flying by your kitchen window, but how many of those feathery backyard visitors can you identify? Bill Thompson's state-specific birdwatching guides provide reliable year-round information on the resident birds of your region. In each guide, 100 birds are profiled, some through multiple color photographs to ensure quick identification. A full-color seasonal section specifies migrating birds that can seen during each season; foods and plants that can attract these birds; and where to go to view year-round and migrating birds.
